Runic Poems

​

Anglo-Saxon

​

Is byþ oferceald, ungemetum slidor,
glisnaþ glæshluttur gimmum gelicust,
flor forste geworuht, fæger ansyne.

​

Ice is very cold and immeasurably slippery;
it glistens as clear as glass and most like to gems;
it is a floor wrought by the frost, fair to look upon.

​

Old Icelandic

​

Íss er árbörkr
ok unnar þak
ok feigra manna fár.
glacies jöfurr.

​

Ice is bark of rivers
and roof of the wave
and destruction of the doomed.

​

Old Norwegian

​

Ís kÇ«llum brú bræiða;
blindan þarf at læiða.

​

Ice is called the broad bridge;
the blind man must be led.
